Having been reborn, why would he be afraid of Mr. Gu, who still has a white moonlight?

Since Gu Tingzhou no longer had a fever, there was no need for him to stay overnight at the hospital; he only needed to go there for intravenous infusions every morning.

Song Wanwan was happy with this, as she could focus on preparing the investment report for Boheng Technology.

Through her initial contact with Qin Feng, she discovered that his company possessed unique core technologies and already had a stable customer base.

A bold idea formed in Song Wanwan's mind: she needed to arrange another meeting with Qin Feng.

She messaged Qin Feng, and the two hit it off immediately, agreeing to meet at a coffee shop at 3 p.m. the next day.

Song Wanwan focused intently on researching the data and writing her report.

*

In the evening, Gu Tingzhou returned to the Gu family's old residence.

Gu's mother was somewhat relieved that Gu Tingzhou was able to finish his work and come back sooner.

Gu Tingzhou noticed that only Madam Gu was in the living room, seemingly enduring something. He glanced upstairs, frowned, and asked, "Mom, has Song Wanwan returned?"

Madam Gu was overjoyed, as this was the first time Gu Tingzhou had approached Song Wanwan.

He immediately beamed and said, "Wanwan has been holed up in her room ever since she got back this afternoon. She's probably resting?"

Gu Tingzhou went upstairs.

The bedroom door was ajar, and there was the sound of someone typing on a computer inside.

Gu Tingzhou pushed the door open a little and coughed intentionally.

The knocking stopped quickly, followed by a series of footsteps approaching the door.

Gu Tingzhou put on airs, ready to be greeted by Song Wanwan's joyful opening of the door, where she would ask him, as usual, why he was back so early today.

As a result, with a "bang," Song Wanwan slammed the door shut.

Gu Tingzhou couldn't help but shout angrily, "Song Wanwan, open the door!"

Song Wanwan glanced at the closed door and immediately realized that she was in the old house, not in her private bedroom in the villa on the hillside.

I and Gu Tingzhou are currently living together.

She pouted, reluctantly walked to the door, and opened it.

Gu Tingzhou was annoyed and said sarcastically, "You don't close the door when you should, and you close it when you shouldn't."

Song Wanwan was still thinking about the report and didn't bother to pay him any attention.

Gu Tingzhou sat down on the sofa with a dark expression, his brows furrowed. "Go get the medicine for me to apply."

They ask for help with such confidence.

Song Wanwan ignored him and continued working on her thoughts on the computer, saying casually, "Wait a minute, I still have some words to type."

Gu Tingzhou sat for two minutes, but Song Wanwan didn't come over; she was still banging on the door.

He felt the air in the room was stuffy and couldn't help but urge, "Song Wanwan, come over here quickly."

Song Wanwan raised her head, somewhat puzzled.

Gu Tingzhou was a little restless, so he stood up from the sofa and walked towards Song Wanwan.

Startled, Song Wanwan immediately slammed the laptop screen shut and stared blankly at him.

As Gu Tingzhou walked, he unbuttoned the collar and cuffs of his clothes, and then began unbuttoning his shirt.

Song Wanwan opened her eyes wide in horror, completely bewildered by Gu Tingzhou's bizarre move.

Until Gu Tingzhou finished unbuttoning his shirt, revealing large expanses of snow-white chest and abdominal muscles, he seemed to be drawing closer, walking step by step towards Song Wanwan with an air of seduction.

Song Wanwan admitted that if she had seen him like this before, she would have been so excited that she would have danced with joy.

But seeing Gu Tingzhou like this now, she couldn't help but want to run away.

Song Wanwan failed to escape, but instead picked up the water glass beside her and splashed the water on Gu Tingzhou's face.

He said calmly, "Gu Tingzhou, have you taken any medication?"

Gu Tingzhou stopped taking off his clothes, letting the water flow down his cheeks, down his jaw, his Adam's apple, and down to his bare chest.

It exudes a noble and abstinent air, yet also carries a seductive and sexy allure, further enhanced by the temptation of being wet.

Gu Tingzhou looked down at the water flowing into his waistband, his brows furrowed slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, as if his whole being was shrouded in frost.

His deep black eyes held aloofness as he coldly said, "Song Wanwan, what's wrong with you!"

Song Wanwan looked at Gu Tingzhou with amusement and retorted, "What's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly taking off your clothes?"

Gu Tingzhou's eyes were filled with suppressed anger as he said fiercely, "What are you thinking about all day? How can I apply medicine without taking off my clothes?"

Song Wanwan took a breath. "Then why are you so restless? Are you sure you didn't take the wrong medicine?"

Gu Tingzhou frowned, struggled with his thoughts for a moment, and said in a fit of exasperation, "It's scabbed over, and it's a little itchy."

Song Wanwan laughed inwardly. Gu Tingzhou could endure pain, but what he couldn't stand the most was itching, even the slightest bit.

He was laughing inside, and a smile was practically spilling from his lips; he was just short of rolling around on the ground laughing.

Gu Tingzhou raised an eyebrow at Song Wanwan, who was trying not to laugh, and said coldly, "After you're done laughing, hurry up and apply the medicine for me."

Song Wanwan sat up from the chaise lounge and quickly applied the medicine to Gu Tingzhou.

He rummaged through the room and found a bamboo back scratcher, which he tossed to Gu Tingzhou. “This is called ‘Self-Reliant.’ Here, consider it compensation for spilling water on you earlier.”

Gu Tingzhou reluctantly changed his clothes, took the 'No Need to Ask for Help' and left.

Just as Song Wanwan finished preparing the report, Aunt Liu came upstairs and called her down for dinner.

When she arrived at the downstairs living room, everyone else was already seated, waiting for Song Wanwan.

Looking embarrassed, Song Wanwan casually pulled up a chair and sat down.

Madam Gu glanced at Song Wanwan, who had sat down, and reminded her, "Wanwan, sit next to Tingzhou."

Only then did Song Wanwan glance at the seats and realize that she had subconsciously sat in the seat furthest away from Gu Tingzhou.

Sitting opposite him was Gu Tingyao, the eldest son of Gu Tingzhou's second uncle. It was rare for him to be having dinner at the main house today.

Song Wanwan gave an awkward laugh. "Mom, I'm already sitting down, so please sit here!"

Gu Tingyao smiled faintly and said, "Sister-in-law Wan'er, it's been a long time."

Gu Tingzhou, sitting some distance away, twitched his brow slightly.

Upon hearing his address, Song Wanwan felt goosebumps all over her body; he emphasized the words "Wan'er" particularly.

Gu Tingyao and Gu Tingzhou are completely different people. He is a real playboy who spends his days eating, drinking, having fun with some rich kids, playing with cars and women.

He dressed like someone who didn't do proper work, exuding the air of a playboy.

In their previous life, Song Wanwan and Gu Tingyao were classmates in the same high school and the same year, but in different classes.

However, because Song Wanwan liked Gu Tingzhou, Gu Tingyao disliked her in every way. He would find fault with her at school, and after she married Gu Tingzhou, he went even further in belittling her and belittling her in front of his friends.

He and Gu Tingzhou were considered rivals in the Gu family, but Gu Tingzhou surpassed him in every way, and he always resented Gu Tingzhou's arrogant attitude.

Therefore, it is understandable that he dislikes Song Wanwan.

However, Song Wanwan was also innocent; she was caught in the crossfire even though she was lying down.

Before she married into the Gu family, everyone knew that she and Gu Tingyao didn't get along and couldn't stand each other, so the family tried their best to avoid them meeting.

Gu Tingyao is different from Gu Tingting. Gu Tingting is timid and simple-minded, to put it bluntly, stupid and easily manipulated.

Gu Tingyao, on the other hand, is a man of few words and deep thoughts. He appears to be a playboy, but he is actually the most unpredictable and likes to do things in secret that cannot be brought to the table.

However, if Song Wanwan wanted to know about the incident where she and Gu Tingzhou were framed at the hotel, she really needed to ease her relationship with Gu Tingyao and get some information from him.

Song Wanwan smiled and said, "I heard that you and Miss Huo are discussing marriage. Miss Huo is a good marriage prospect, and your status has risen accordingly."

Gu Tingyao revealed a meaningful smile, his peach blossom eyes filled with affection as he lazily said, "I thought that Sister-in-law Wan'er could only see my elder brother, and that no one else was worthy of your attention."

Song Wanwan remained noncommittal and continued, "How could that be? I'm a member of the Gu family now, of course I should care about my family."

Gu Tingyao's smile froze on his face as he looked at Song Wanwan with some surprise. He then chuckled, "Family? Thank you for your concern, Sister-in-law Wan'er. I also want to thank you for marrying my brother, which gave me this opportunity. I'll give you a bag another day as a special thank you."

Song Wanwan automatically ignored the sarcasm in Gu Tingyao's mouth and said with a smile, "Okay, I might not appreciate what others give me, but I will definitely accept what you give me."

Gu Tingyao looked at Song Wanwan with a faint smile, a sly glint in his eyes. He wondered what Song Wanwan was up to today.

Gu Tingzhou, watching from a distance, looked suspicious. In the past, the two would always fight whenever they met, clearly showing the hostility of enemies meeting each other.

Song Wanwan was surprisingly easy to talk to today, and even accepted the bag Gu Tingyao gave her.

However, he disliked Song Wanwan's contact with Gu Tingyao.
